And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall earnestly desire to die, and death shall fly from them. And the figures of the locusts were like horses equipped for war; and upon their heads there were as crowns, like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were like the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as breastplates of iron: and the sound of their wings was as the rumbling of chariots of many horses rushing to battle.

By these three were slain the third part of mankind, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the sulphur, which proceeded out of their mouths. For their powers are in their mouth, and in their tails; for their tails are like serpents, having heads, and with them they do hurt. And the residue of mankind, who were not slain by these plagues, repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship demons, and idols of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of wood, and of stone: which can neither see nor hear, nor walk: and they repented not of their murders, nor of their magical arts, nor of their whoredom, nor of their thefts.
